The output shows the solution to a DEA model where facilities in Seaview (S), Farmington (F), Lewiston (L), and San Domingo (D) are compared. The inputs, in order, are number of machines, size of work force, and goodness of location. The outputs, in order, are production, quality rating, and on-time completion percentage. The model examines the efficiency of Lewiston.
